EMPIRE NOTES
Booster Brady
The Guanelas, are erecting a twenty
tv o room building with all modern im
provements on their ranch to take ‘care
of the increasing patronage that they
are receiving from tourists. Last year
this commodious building was crowded
with tourists and the large number of
people that are making reservations
for the coming summer mad * it neces
sary to make the new addition. The
ranch is situated in one of the m>»9t
beaut ful spots and within one-half
mile of our town. It is an idea! spot
to rest and enjoy the beauties of na
ture. It gives us much pleasure to
note the improvements. As for nospi
titality and eats, Guanelas cannot be

Idaho Springs. Colo.
Dear Sir;
I wish to tender my resignation

As you know the post oflfi ,*e will go

has been given to another if favorable
to the Department, and if not you give
it to me. in other words 1 was to be
second choice
I have another position awaiting me
when I leave here which is better
financially and is permanent, so I feel
justified to leave the service at this
time.
Wishing you success as postmaster

am,
Yours Truly,

Writers Opinion is That Modern
Ways Are Not Conducive to For
mation of Closest Ties.
There is ground for suspicion, if not
conviction, (hat the art of friendship
Is dying out among us.
The friendship of the ancients was
very exacting. In modern times we
should look for a long while for such
mutual regard as that of Damon and
Pythias. Friendship In our crowded
days covers a wide area, but as in
ue case of all extensive development,
it loses intensiveness. Instead of
friendships we have visiting lists. Not
fV iose whom we love but those whom
tve would propitiate, we Invite to din
ner. Those who would propitiate us
invite us in turn and permit us to
eat their food and air our views. We
live —alas! —In the suburbs of each
other’s hearts.
The man w ithout friends can accom
plish very little in this world in this
age. Depending on his own strength
alone, his mightiest endeavors are as
nothing. At harvest time he gathers
nothing but leaves and husks. But the
tian with friends —strong, true friends
and loyal—who have confidence In his
integrity and ability to do things, has
great power. Where he leads they
will follow him. and all working to
gether unitedly bring victory. This is
the reason why some men achieve
great success with moderate abilities,
while their more brilliant competitors
fall short.
To have true friends yon mast be
one. The quality of loyalty you get
depends on the quality of loyalty you
give.—Illustrated Sunday Maaaaine.

The Road of
“On Time” Trains
It is the persistent intent of the Bl KMto run its trains
“On Time.” HI RM\f;TO\ train* run 100.000 milr*
every da%, and it follows that there must be, due to circumstances
and weather conditions, an adjustment in the operation of each train
with regard toother trains. The service each hour, over the entiresys
tem, requires a constant assimilation of complex conditions.
There are 47,000 employes in the service of this Company; this or
ganization has been over fifty year* in the making. “Well operated’* is
an expression that may be applied to 111 itM.\l*TO.\ passenger
trains and will explain some of the latest “On Time” records of its
prominent trains between Denver and tile Ka*t.

days out of 31.
